So the last day, the 20th of our apartment was the same day that i
left to santa paula. And as soon as i got there i took a shower and
then got in the car and left for the airport. Mrs. Brandon (MOM) took us
there so my car is at their house. So we got to the airport and I was
trying to find a journal because I forgot mine. :( so still looking
for one. When we got on the plane we were seated in the middle row. I
have never been on a plane that big before. I was kind of hoping that
it was going to be a double decker plane, but it wasnt. I sat next to
this old chinese lady who was apparently the cutest lady in the whole
world. She didnt speak english but we seemed to communicate very well.
The plane had terrible turbulence and she would grab my hand or arm
when the plane would really shake. I think she had been praying too
while that was going on because when we got our food she did the sign
of the cross and then ate.And I thought that was really cool. At one
point we fell asleep and she was holding my arm. It melted my heart. I
didnt get to sleep very well on the plane. I would wake up every 2-3
hours because my neck and butt started to hurt. I watched like 50
movies I swear. I started out with diary of a wimpy kid which I
thought was cute, and ended watching bounty hunter. So finally we
landed in Australia and got lost. I think we walked around for a
little while and had to get directed to this place called transfers
because we didnt have our next ticket yet. Finally about 45 min later
we found it. We were also goofing around with our cameras taking
pictures of everything so thats why it took so long. The people there
are so nice!!! The security at the Ausi airport was so easy and they
were so nice. Its nothing like the people in LA who are all so mean
and want you to get in and out as fast as you can. Thats when I wrote
on everyone's facebook. So back on another plane we go. This flight I
slept through the whole time. I think it was a 3 hour flight but was
too tired to even care what time it was. I just had to sleep. So when
we landed in NZ we were so excited. We walked out side and asked each other, "What now" haha so we hopped on a bus which took us down
town. It was a 14 dollar ticket for backpakers. Which I thought was
really cool. So we got off at our first stop which is walking distance
from the place we are going to pick up our camper van. We stayed in a
hostel which is now my first experience in one. We got a room with 3
bunk beds and three other girls slept in there with us. They were from
the London and had been traveling for 10 months. I was like
whhhaaaaa??? Dang thats a long time. So I guess
this brings me to today. We get our camper van in a few in a few hours
so I'm really excited to see what it looks like. Oh and Ps... I thought
that it was going to be freezing cold out here but its not at all. I
think it gets colder in Ventrua at night then it is here. Lets hope i
dont eat my words :)
